Chapter 18: The Timberwolves

When Peake was a child, he accompanied his father to the edge of the primeval forest to cut trees, and once saw a timber wolf from a long distance, and he was amazed at how big animals could be in the world.

When he grew up, he didn't think so, maybe he was too young at that time and his body was small, so he felt that everything was big.

He had seen wolves on the plains, and the wolves on the plains were about the same size as the big dogs in the town, and then he thought that the timber wolves he saw at the edge of the forest as a child should be no different from the wolves on the plains.

But at this moment, his worldview collapsed, and the timberwolf in front of him was not only bigger than he had imagined, but twice as big as he had seen when he was a child!

They were as tall as his big black feet, and their massive bodies were almost indistinguishable from bulls!

Pulling out the lion of the Peace Town Circus and fighting it alone, Peake seems to be able to see the picture of the lion from the south being killed by the timberwolf in seconds.

Can this still be called a wolf?

Big Blackfoot flirted his hooves, gathering momentum, and Peake picked up a thicker branch behind him, ready to put up a final stand.

The timberwolves at the front were the largest and should be their leader, and his father had told him that every pack would have a wolf, and the wolf would give orders, and the other wolves would strictly follow them.

I saw that the head wolf was not in a hurry, pacing around him and Big Blackfoot in a circle, as if admiring his prey.

Peake leaned low, leaning against a slightly stout tree to prevent the timberwolves from attacking behind him.

Yes, its companion has outflanked the back road, so what is there to worry about, and it is not impossible to admire it before eating its prey. Peake thought desperately.

But the Timberwolves' next move completely stunned him.

I saw that the huge head wolf circled around the side of Pique's body, as if trying to bypass Big Blackfoot, but Big Blackfoot was loyal at this time and kept in front of Pique.

After the head wolf circled to the other side, the big black foot followed in the other way.

Seeing this, the timberwolf was not angry, and paced patiently, and finally, I don't know if it was because of fear or what, it was Big Blackfoot who couldn't help it first, and it actually took the initiative to attack.

When the Timberwolf walked to their side again, Big Black Foot turned sideways, and its powerful hind legs flung out.

The power of the Big Black Foot is not to be underestimated, it once kicked the fruit seller lightly, and then the full force of the kick, if it can be hit, can also make the timberwolf hurt for a while.

However, it backfired, and the kick that the big black foot had been accumulating for a long time failed! The head wolf shook his body for a moment, and then he shrewdly dodged.

Seeing the big black foot attack, several timber wolves behind the head wolf bared their teeth and took another step closer.

This was clearly not what the head wolf wanted, and it turned around and bared its teeth, scaring off the cruel-eyed timberwolves.

Pique wondered again, what did this mean? Does it mean that the wolf has priority in enjoying its prey? Well, it was already his best situation at this time to not be bitten by a pack of wolves.

The head wolf turned left and right, but it never attacked, the big black foot just provoked it, and it was not angry, and Peake saw it in his eyes, puzzled and desperate, and at the same time sighed at the spirituality of this species.

All things have spirits.

This was a phrase that his father often told him when he was alive, and it was also a phrase that his father instructed him when he gave him the big black feet.

Since he was a child, Pique has never treated Big Black Feet badly, so Big Black Feet can never give up in this desperate situation.

And now, the wolf tossing and turning in front of them must have a purpose.

In order to confirm his inner thoughts, and to fight for the last chance, he tried to speak: "You...... What do you want to do?"

After Pique finished speaking, he scolded himself in his heart, he was so stupid that he actually wanted to talk to the Timberwolves, it seemed that he was really scared stupid.

Just as Peake despised himself, the timberwolf flexed his front legs.

Is it finally going to attack?

Pique is gathering momentum behind Big Blackfoot, ready to cooperate with Big Black at any time to meet the Timberwolves' fatal blow.

And so, the man, the wolf, and the donkey stood still.

A minute passed, two minutes passed, and the tense Peake finally couldn't hold on, he only felt his heart beat five or six hundred times in two minutes, and he was thinking now, you hurry up and attack, give us a good time.

Is this also a tactic? First outflanking and then mentally destroying the enemy's will, if this is the case, Pique feels that he is greatly respected by his opponent, even if he dies immediately, he will not be wronged.

"You, are you trying to express something to me?" After three minutes, Peake finally couldn't hold back the question in his heart and asked again.

He spent more than 10 years with Big Blackfoot, and his father's teaching from an early age gave him a deep understanding of the spirituality in the hearts of these animals.

After saying that, he knew it would understand!

It's like Big Blackfoot can understand most of his words!

This timberwolf can understand it too!

Because! He saw the timberwolf and nodded!

Peake's eyes widened as he watched as the wolf bit down on a branch, his head pulsing, and he drew a few lines on the ground as he bit the branch.

It was a few simple strokes, but it was enough for Peake to be shocked, and from now on, he developed a deep sense of awe for this forest.

That's a man's pattern!

The human head is a stroke, the human body is a stroke, the arms and legs are two strokes, it looks like a "big" character, but if you look closely, you can see the traces of each stroke intermittently, it is a person, Peake judged.

After the wolf drew a "big" on the ground, he drew a long line, one end of the line pointed to the word "big", and the other pointed to the direction in which they appeared.

Peake held back the shock in his heart and seriously understood what the head wolf meant, after all, this was the only chance for him and Big Blackfoot to live. "You mean, let me go with you?"

The wolf lowered the branch, his dark green eyes blinking, as if in agreement.

Pique left the tree next to him and took a tentative step forward.

Seeing this, the wolf actually began to turn around and walk back, and the other timber wolves also slowly turned around.

You guessed it.

But this ...... Where are the wolves going to take him, can't they take him back to the nest and eat it again, because it's so troublesome, is it because a she-wolf has given birth to a cub and is too weak to go out? Or maybe they want to eat the fruit from the tree and can't pick it themselves, so tie him back and pick the fruit for them......

For a moment, a hundred speculations collided in Pique's mind.

"Big Black Feet, it seems that you don't need to be eaten now, if you can see the situation, you can run away by yourself......"

And so, a pack of wolves, with a man in the middle, walked in the forest, and by the way, there was a donkey behind them......
